LEGENDARY BATTLES

In the annals of our own imagination, one question plagues us as fans of Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Horror, and others. That question always is...who is greater? Who among our fondest heroes and villains will stand victorious when pitted against a foe of equal caliber? YOU DECIDE, SEE RULES FOR DETAILS.

Shields, spears and sandals clash as these two ancient Greek heroes collide in a Colisseum of carnage. While this one may be a little "DEADLIEST WARRIOR", this battle is intended on being between the movie renditions of them, NOT the actual figures of myth and ancient history. Both call Greece home but only one can be victorious.

Other sites have debated this match-up before but who cares, I want to know what you think!

King Leonidas:

Spartan training, a regimen that hardened him as strong as steel

Mastery of his weapons and shield

Highly agile, able to take on a plethora of different opponents without fear

This fantasy battle is between two main powers gifted by an evil force and less about the men that wield it. Though Jackie Estacado and Al Simmons are the best known wielders of the Darkness and the mantle of Spawn respectively, this is not about those men. In both cases the human involved is less important, it is whether or not the great artifact known as the Darkness can defeat Malebolgia's general of Hell, the Hell Spawn.

For the purposes of not letting one or the other have a greater upper hand, the setting for the battle will be a modern metropolis, let's say London, England. Why London? Due to its heavy fogs, dense cloud cover during the day and ancient streets and architecture, both combatants will have a fair and just fight giving their strengths and weaknesses. Speaking of which...

The Darkness:

Does not function in daylight whatsoever, however if the sunlight is obstructed, it will function just as well as at night.

The wearer can create anything they can conceive, including living creatures called Darklings whom are violent and tend to curse a lot.

Nothing is out of bounds, wielders have even created false humans for various purposes. Weapons are also a common manifestation.

The wearer has a telepathic connection with their Darklings that allows them to perceive what they are perceiving and control their every move.

This matchup pits Sith vs. Sith in a spectacular battle that should send dual saber against dual saber in a flurry of attacks. While Exar Kun is the progenitor of the double bladed lightsaber and his personal one was heavily modified to suit his needs, Darth Mauls martial training and ferocity may win him the day. You decide however, and here are the key points to consider for this battle.

Alright this premier matchup comes from my long love of Fantasy. In this square-off we see the Terry Goodkind created Sword of Truth series hero Richard Rahl along with his Mord-Sith companion Cara against a terrible twosome of redeemed villainy functioning for the greater good; D&D alumnists Raistlin Majere from DragonLance fame and Drizzt Do'urden from the Dark Elf Trilogy. These four will do battle against one another using the best power and ablilities to destroy the other. We don't use stats for these battles because one system reflects only one kind of world. If you are not familiar with the totality of each characters abilities please review the links below to get the full synopsis. In summation this is what everyone brings to the party.

Richard Rahl:

The infamous Seeker of Truth is armed with magic, the Sword Truth and some notable hand-to-hand combat ability.

As a War Wizard, he is the first in millennia to wield both additive and subtractive magic simultaneously

The Sword of Truth, which is utterly useless in others hands, when wielded by a Seeker is empowered by that Seeker's own abilities and emotions.
